  • What is Your Main and Why Do You Play It?

    sad us DA's don;t get much love these days are 5th job skills are niche or too dangerous to use, summon mastema being one the worst, to invest soo much to max that skill out for a summon that adds hardly any damage like completely negligible and she doesn;t really help our survivability either. I swear the skill should be a toggle where u can hagve her out 100% up time and her little shield skill just have a cd on it, that would make it actually useful =)

    I feel you. My theory is Nexon see them KMS DPM charts and see DA's up near the top so they don't do anything for the class.

    The 5th job skills are so bad most of the time that I've taken Demonic Blast of my keyboard and Fenzy only gets used when a boss is bound. I was hoping to get a decent mobbing move or something since Lunar Slash gets boring on the road to 250.

  • SOLVED

    Base spawn rates and mob density should probably be addressed in more of the late game maps but it is a hard subject to approach because both Kishin and Frenzy Totems were introduced to deal with spawns. One problem is now both of those end up generating money for Nexon and increasing the base rates too much could lead to players spending less.

    Not sure I agree with any of your points.
    1. There are already a lot of high-level Kannas out there and this would probably infuriate those who have spent time and money on Kanna. The skills cooldown would kill its use for many if it were significantly lower than the skill duration.
    2. I don't think this would be a smart business move for Nexon and highly doubt they would do it.
    3. I have already discussed the base spawn rates briefly. As for turning Kishin into a damage buff, I highly disagree. Haku needs to be returned to a %Magic Attack self-buff. Kannas current weakened state should not be remedied by further nerfing her toolkit.

  • Festival Nova Box Drop rate?

    Still took 90+ minutes for my Kanna to get 250 boxes with 98% drop + DHS + Big Spider.

    That's a fair bit longer than I want to spend, especially for a character with some drop gear. 250 boxes is going to be quite hard on players without it.

  • Spirit Savior and Mages

    Tried it again on my Kanna and I got like 1700 points. Teleport is completely awful, the delay makes it so that it's almost impossible to get away from the corrupted spirit once it gets on screen with you and the base movement speed is way too slow. There are so many odd angles and slopes that it makes teleporting not work half the time anyway.

    I'm not good at this game, and will freely admit it, however, this daily will basically wall players off from getting to any higher level content because they decided to play a specific class. There is no real alternative with symbol drop rates being so low.

    Honestly, this is even less fun than the Wondroid JQ.

  • Nerf the broken classes or buff the weak classes

    I don't think any of the characters mentioned really need nerfed. I'd actually consider NL to be one of the more balanced classes and that Nexon should look to bringing other weaker classes up to par with NLs.

    I was considering making a Let's Review thread(s) for classes and potentially the game state where I discuss how I feel about the classes; what it does well, what it does poorly and what changes I think should be made to enhance the player experience. However, I don't think I'll have the time to get all of that written down before the year's end.

    I think we should have a subform in the suggestion area with topics dedicated to each class, thereby keeping things fairly organized. Initial post would be by a VFM who would maintain the topic, then they would either add links to posts or a short description of posts made to the main topic, to create a more digestible list that can be forwarded. The could also have a second post of changes that have been implemented, under consideration or rejected (hopefully with some reasoning from Nexon). Obviously, that would be a lot of work, and I doubt such changes would be made.
